Today, I want to share with you my thoughts on sex. Um, yes, I like
it. LOL. To be more specific, I want to discuss the benefits of a
well-described fucking.

Do four chapters to describe a love scene, especially a ménage love
scene, seem excessive to you? To me, it doesn’t. It didn’t seem
over-the-top when I wrote it, and it still doesn’t. But, judging
from the stunned reactions I’ve gotten from readers and other
authors, a four-chapter scene is unheard of, even for erotic romance
novels.

What the fuck? (pun intended)

I mean, c’mon. Romance novels are about romantic relationships.
Yeah, duh. And, in erotic romance, the bedroom door is open -- wide
open in my case.

Being able to explore the entire relationship is one of the reasons I
enjoy telling erotic romance stories. To me, the physical aspects of
a romantic relationship are pretty damn important.

I like it deep, baby.

The chemistry when characters first meet, reactions to kisses and the
tenderness, or not, of their touch -- all of those things only scrape
the surface of a love story.

Fictional character or a real live person, how someone behaves
before, during and after fucking, tells you a ton about that person.
Everything from the words they use to how they respond to their lover
are clues to where they are emotionally, and, most especially, the
health of that particular relationship.

Uh, huh. The deeper the better.

When it comes to characters and story, I prefer detail. Now don't get
me wrong. There's a time and a place for a passionate quickie every
now and again. But too many of them make for a lousy lay in real life
and a lousy love story in erotic romance. Just like a lover who
finishes and rolls away before you get satisfaction, an abundance of
under-described love scenes can leave you unsatisfied.

One thing I can definitely promise is that the four-chapter love
scene in Soft Shatter exposes all. You get every wonderful detail:
the foreplay, the ecstasy and the aftermath. And all of it relevant
to the bigger story.

Here’s a short snippet.

“I’m going to take you now,” he murmurs softly. “I’ll be
gentle.”

He waits for her okay. With a subtle nod, she gives it. His dick
breaches her opening and pushes in a few inches. Dilated eyes roll
back into his head. Yeah. I bet it feels like heaven — he’s
wanted her for so long. He advances another inch or so.

“Fuck.” Nash throws his head back. I scent the lust on him.
Sweat beads on his brow with the effort to control his beast. He sits
back on his heels. One hand on her thigh, he reaches with the other
to lovingly thumb her clit.

What do think? Does the above give you some idea as to the
personalities of three characters participating in the ménage? I
hope so. That was my goal.
